NEW BEIJING

With the fastest growing economy in the world, clocking over 10 % growth, communistic china is the spectacle everybody loves to hate and hates to admire. Openness towards western influences hasn't only boosted their economy, it has also recharged the art scene. The capitol Beijing stand today as one of the most important cultural scenes in the world.

With bands like P.K 14, Joyside, Hedgehog and Carsick cars (picture), Time magazine has called Beijing one of the top 5 cities in the world of music. The performance art, painting , sculpting, film, poetry and rock n roll, once thought of as spiritual pollution has turned into a spiritual revolution.

The more I read about Beijing and its 20 million inhabitants,the more I want to go there. It seems like a place where history is being written as we speak. If it survives the Olympics this is the place to go.
